contents Compact Runge-Kutta (cRK) Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods, recently introduced in [Q. Chen, Z. Sun, and Y. Xing, SIAM J. Sci. Comput. SIAM J. Sci. Comput., 46: A1327-A1351, 2024], are a variant of RKDG methods for solving hyperbolic conservation laws and are characterized by their compact stencil including only immediate neighboring finite elements. This article proposes a cRK Flux Reconstruction (FR) method by interpreting cRK as a procedure to approximate time-averaged fluxes, which requires computing only a single numerical flux for each time step and further reduces data communication. The numerical flux is carefully constructed to maintain the same Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy (CFL) numbers as cRKDG methods and achieve optimal accuracy uniformly across all polynomial degrees, even for problems with sonic points. A subcell-based blending limiter is then applied for problems with nonsmooth solutions, which uses Gauss-Legendre solution points and performs MUSCL-Hancock reconstruction on subcells to mitigate the additional dissipation errors. Additionally, to achieve a fully admissibility-preserving cRKFR scheme, a flux limiter is applied to the time-averaged numerical flux to ensure admissibility preservation in the means, combined with a positivity-preserving scaling limiter. The method is further extended to handle source terms by incorporating their contributions as additional time averages. Numerical experiments including Euler equations and the ten-moment problem are provided to validate the claims regarding the method's accuracy, robustness, and admissibility preservation.
